This mode is recommended to improve
driving and DC charging performances
during winter by raising the battery tem
-
perature to an adequate level.
However, the driving distance may be
reduced as the energy is required to
increase battery temperature.
Also, if the battery temperature is low
during driving or when scheduled air
conditioner/heater is activated, this
mode is operated to improve driving
performance.
However, the mode is not operated to
ensure driving distance when the bat
-
tery level is low.
This mode is available for the vehicles
equipped with the battery heater.
Utility mode
The high voltage battery is used instead
of the 12V auxiliary battery for operating
the convenient features of the vehicle.
When driving is not necessary such as
while camping or when stopping the
vehicle for a long time, it is possible to
use the electrical devices (audio, lights,
air conditioner, heater, etc.) for long
hours.
